Summer 2010




Dancing with the girls at The Hootie Hut for Haley's birthday.



Playing Dr with Theodore the bear.


Little Mermaid balloon bigger than she is.

We have had a busy & fun summer. Started with our beach house trip in Florida, went to the Ozarks for the Hull family vacation & have spent most weekends swimming or at the lake.
We are still working on potty training, but cannot find a "treat" that keeps Madison interested. Last night she told Willie that she didn't want to go on the potty because she was tired of Skittles. We tried to bribe her with a ZhuZhu pet if she went on the potty all week, but 5 days is too far away. She wants immediate gratification.
Madison is enjoying daycare & is excited to go most days. She knows all of her colors & can count to 31 (they count calendar days each day).
I am training for a 5K in October, so my free time has been devoted to that. For you that know me well, I do not run. I prefer to walk, but have found that running is better for weight loss. I am going to Kansas City to run the 5K with my sister Emily.

Madison LOVES to pretend now. That includes playing dress up, feeding her babies & helping them go on the big girl potty. Even though she has not mastered the potty yet, the babies have!
